Indian cuisine is the general name for the foods
of the Indian subcontinent, characterized by the extensive use of
various spices, herbs and other vegetables, and sometimes fruits
grown in India and also for the widespread practice of vegetarianism
in Indian society. Each family of Indian cuisine includes a wide
assortment of dishes and cooking techniques. As a consequence, it
varies from region to region, reflecting the varied demographics of
the ethnically-diverse subcontinent.

Hindu beliefs and culture have played an influential role in the
evolution of Indian cuisine. However, cuisine across India also
evolved as a result of the subcontinent's large-scale cultural
interactions with Mongols and Britain making it a unique blend of
some various cuisines.

The spice trade between India and Europe is often cited as the main
catal for Europe's Age of Discovery. The colonial period introduced
European cooking styles to India, adding to the flexibility and
diversity of Indian cuisine. Indian cuisine has influenced cuisines
across the world, especially those from Southeast Asia and the
Caribbean.
